I need your input…
Hey Internet,
As you may have noticed I haven’t written in a few days. Call it writers block, lack of inspiration or distraction. My thoughts as of late have been somewhat random. I’ve been torn between where I should place my focus. You see, I’m not sure if I told you this, but I’m moving to Jamaica. So, I’m torn between, do I focus on the move or this personal development plan. Oops, again not sure if I told you but I’m on a journey that will run approx 1 year to tackle certain areas of my life. Each area gets a 40 day focus (there is significance in 40 days). Now, without working on completely transforming myself and my life the move to Jamaica may be jeopardized. Hence the need for the PD. However I’m SO excited about this move and feel like if I don’t keep it, the “prize” so to speak fresh in my mind, I could loose focus on why I’m doing what I’m doing and lose my motivation.
So this is where you come in internet. I’ve said it before and it bears repeating, this site is not just about me (even though NONE of y’all said anything to me yet) so what I’m asking internet is for our insight. Yes, I am praying and meditating to seek clarity. But I’d also like to know what you think and how you may have deal with something similar.
As a Life Coach, my first question would be, “What do you think is the right thing to do?”
As a pragmatist, I would always be looking at the long-term benefits. If you genuinely feel that you need the personal development process to be completed now, then I would go with that, especially if the Jamaican adventure can be delayed.
If the Jamaican step is a once in a lifetime opportunity, then perhaps you need to take a leap of faith and go for it.
Here’s a post that I wrote about making choices a couple of months ago. I hope it helps.

The Jamaica trip can definitely be delayed. In all honesty, I know the right answer, but as many of us do, I just want someone to tell me the other answer so I can justify not doing what I know I should do or doing what I know I should do *slaps hand* Thanks Darren! How did you find my blog?
